I have recently purchased "Trouncing the Dow." I'm not sure what years of Value Line data to use? Both 1998 & 1999 figures are estimated. I've been starting at 1988 and going to 97 with 1998 estimated figure as my current book value and ROE. If anyone could let me know if this is correct it would be greatly appreciated.
